商品簡介
Has postwar Japanese security strategy been marked by incoherence and a lack of focus, as many commentators claim? Not according to Samuels (political science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology), who argues in this historical analysis of Japanese strategy formulation that Japanese strategists have responded to a rising China, the threat of North Korea, the possibility of abandonment by the United States, and the relative decline of the Japanese economy with strategic agility and pragmatic recognition of constraints.
